: How Appealing"Court Backs War Powers Over Rights of Detainees"
David G. Savage of The Los Angeles Times reports today that "Court upholds U.S. right to hold Guantanamo prisoners; An appeals court says suspects may be detained indefinitely so long as the government can show their ties to Al Qaeda or the Taliban."
The Washington Post reports that "Appeals court upholds ruling to detain terror suspect."
And Warren Richey of The Christian Science Monitor reports that "Court sets new rules for legal challenges at Guantanamo; A federal appeals court in Washington ruled against a cook who worked for an Al Qaeda-linked group and was challenging the legality of his detention; The ruling clarified the ground rules for future habeas corpus cases brought by Guantanamo detainees."
My earlier coverage of yesterday's D.C. Circuit ruling appears at this link.
